Medication Labeling and Safety Measures for the Welfare of Staff and Patients

Our products help meet the regulations and recommendations set forth by the major healthcare regulatory organizations:

• Food and Drug Administration (FDA) – A 2005 document issued by the FDA analyzes key sharps injury performance indicators as well as characteristics of a well-made safety product. The InviroSNAP! Safety Syringe is compared to the criteria.
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) – Due to a high level of needlestick injuries, Congress was spurred into action, leading to the creation of the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act of 2000. OSHA issued a list of criteria to help reduce needlestick incidents.
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) – The InviroSNAP! Safety Syringe is compared to NIOSH’s preferred characteristics for safety devices.
• The Joint Commission – Hospital safety is of the utmost importance, and establishing a needlestick prevention program encourages staff to be aware of potential contaminants as well to adhere to medication labeling procedures.
